The couple married in 1937, and had seven children, one of whom died shortly after birth.

Waugh had married Evelyn Gardner in 1928, but the marriage ended very quickly due to Gardner's infidelity, and they were divorced in 1930. Having the same first name, the couple were known to their friends as 'He-Evelyn' and 'She-Evelyn'.
